Day 365 - LAST DAY!!!

Okay this is a super exciting post for two reasons:  1)  It's my last post!!! and 2) I finally got the alcohol ink and it turned out super cool!  I absolutely love how it looks and I'm going to make a really cool keychain/necklace out of this....but for now I'm just reveling in the beauty of it...haha...but it does look great and I'm super glad!



Day 364

So this was going to be an exciting post but because I'm super slow at posting, it turned into a sad post.  My fish AND my bamboo died :(  But at least the fish was cute while it lasted???  And the fish had colored dots on it....but it's hard to see

Day 363

I bought these cups at Goodwill and then I decorated them and I think they are sweeeettttttttt



Day 362

I marbled my nails!  And even though this isn't a good picture they turned out really well!

Day 361

I'm taking a drawing class (ADVANCED drawing...whatttt??? totally wasn't aware of that when I signed up for it).....and it's awesome!  I love it and right now we are stamping and it's really cool.  I drew these pears (YUP!!! drew them!) and then stamped them and it's awesome!

Day 360

I really like how this turned out - even though I may have messed up and had to turn a T into an exclamation point.....but anyways, it still looks cool



Day 359

Somehow I inherited a bottle of disappearing ink.  And before it disappeared I squirted it all over a pizza box...but I think it looks cool because the box was cool and the dots contrast a lot with the box...



Day 358

Another birthday card - this time for Mallet!  He is a diver!!



Day 357

I really want to get good at drawing with pen....but I'm still not there yet.  But this is my best effort yet!





Day 356

I love these lyrics....and I used Sharpies.



Day 355

My macro lens takes awesome photos - and when you take pictures of people's eyes it looks amazing.  I'm pretty sure this is Lizzie's eye and it's beautiful!



Day 354

At the hotel, the manager gave me and Anna free ice cream!  And so we made him a thank-you note...



Day 353

I made this for Jakers.  I used paper and acrylic paint.  I told him I was making it for Mags so he wouldn't get suspicious.  He loves football....and I thought it was cool!



Day 352

So over training trip in Florida, it was Carder's birthday!  So I made him a beautiful card...



Day 351

So my swimmer Alex Moore apparently checked out my blog over Christmas break.  And then while we were in Florida, she made a dot in the sand and so she gets to be on my blog!  And she is pretty awesome too :)



Day 350

I made this for Victor.  I used metallic acrylic paints and washers.  I think it turned out awesome.



Day 349

This is one of my favorite meals - zucchini sausage and tomato skillet.  It's delicious!  And the sausage is dots!



Day 348

I am the gift-wrapper of the family - I wrap all gifts headed to mommers.  So here is one of my favorites of the year....and the ornaments are awesome, aren't they?



Day 347

Remember that awesome macro lens?  Well check this out...it's a piece of wood....probably only 1/4 inch across...but when you get that close you see all these dots and lines and it's beautiful!



Day 346

I made this for JTT....I took some cool paper and then Erin helped me draw a coffee mug and then I painted around it...it was super hard to paint because I LOVED the paper but I'm so happy with how it turned out.  And I really want to make another for myself!




Day 345

One day Erika and I went to Goodwill.  And we found these awesome tri-colored shoes.  And then I wore them and it was even better.  And the best part of it all?  They have a pattern made of dots!



Day 344

Another great fisheye photo - of a bunch of great Gutwein (+ Liu) girls :)  And bonus is my shirt is dots plus the dots on the wood wall and the dots on the super awesome art behind me!



Day 343

This was a Christmas present for my mom.  I took a famous painting and printed it out and then re-did it with only a few colors.  I wanted to make it look more modern and graphic.  I think it turned out really cool.  Then I used heavy gloss gel on top of it to give it texture - it is sweet!



Day 342

A typical Lizzie and Heike photo - in front of a piece of art work I made!  But her shirt and my earrings are dots!



Day 341

This is probably my favorite photo from all of break.  It was taken with my new macro lens for my iPhone and it is of my shirt. I think it's really cool because a) it's macro and b) the sequins sort of look like ornaments and I took this on Christmas day :)



Day 340

I saw Maggie!  And we were both wearing cute scarves!  And using a Fisheye lens makes it a dot!



Day 339

Another drawing done with Sharpies in Florida - CHAOSSSSS!





Day 338

While we were in Florida, I drew a picture with Sharpies...





Day 337

Yes, I'm finally getting around to updating my blog. But that means Christmas break was fun and exciting!


I got an awesome fisheye lens for my iPhone for Christmas and then I went to dinner with Mags and JTT and we had sushi at my favorite - Sushi Ting!  And my fisheye lens made a great photo :)
